Chapter 694 Travel
After several autumn rains, the air was so wet and tight, the sun was warm and gentle, much better than the scorching sun.
Gu Xiang said he wanted to go to Yanzhou, and the people under him started packing his bags, but in fact he didn't want to leave. He was not like the nobles in Beijing who traveled, and he had to prepare his bags for three months and half a year. When he was away, everything was simple. The most food the convoy brought in the convoy was food. The guards had to bring enough weapons, and the next ones could be streamlined.
There are too many trivial matters in Shouling County. The "prince" who suddenly appeared in the capital was unknown. The two attendants sent were both figures. Just looking at the face, they were so kind and particularly favorable. I dare not say that they were not much different from those eminent monks, great masters, Taoist gods and immortals.
Such people are definitely not found by just looking for them at will.
Gu Xiang didn't know that those important officials of the court saw such a fake prince who was wandering among the people and had good knowledge and cultivation. Her subordinates could easily recruit such talented talents. But she felt very alert.
Shouling is her base camp, the more anxious she is, the more dangerous she is, the more chaotic she is.
Here, no matter what these two servants want to do, they cannot get them to do.
Gu Xiang arranged all the matters in an orderly manner. After contacting the court, she sent secret letters to Beijing one after another to ask about the northwest, without any anxiety.
Qiu Li and the others were all relieved.
Chen Xu was amazed and thought that he had gained knowledge again, and that His Highness the Princess could really calm down. At first, he heard all the rumors about Duke An in Yanzhou, and then heard that His Highness the Princess was going to Yanzhou. He didn't know that Gu Xiang felt that the situation in the northwest border was not good, so he only believed that the princess was indeed interested in Duke An in Yanzhou.
As a result, because of the operation of the capital, His Royal Highness the Princess delayed it. He made all kinds of preparations at that time. He might need them to stop a crazy Princess, and he also deliberately got angry with Lao Gou and others for this.
Everyone belongs to the Princess' Mansion. They prosper and all the losses. His Highness is the lord of everyone. If something happens, no one will end up well. Of course they have to consider the princess.
In a irritable mood, the princess faced the person in the capital... even if it was just a long distance and a side-to-side confrontation, Chen Xu felt very uneasy.
But I never thought that the princess would be as calm as he would be.
Chen Xu: "...I always feel that Duke An Guo will not be able to surrender to my princess in the future."
This is a good thing.
At the end of October, Gu Xiang finished his life in a hurry and prepared to set off for Yanzhou.
With Magistrate Wang, Zhou County Magistrate, and more than 60,000 soldiers from Yongyi's army, Shouling will naturally be very stable.
Recently, due to the heroic stories, the people's emotions are very high, and everyone is working hard.
Gu Xiang came out of Shouling Post several times and went to the county government. On the way, he saw a white-haired old man leading a child to clean up and repair the broken bricks and stones on the street little by little, and also clean up the garbage. Several old ladies were also helping Gu Ji’s chefs cook medicine soup.
The medicine soup is prepared by several doctors Zhang from Gu Xiangzhang. It can prevent typhoid fever and plague, etc. The medicinal materials are very cheap, but the effect is quite good.
The people who live in the longevity have endured this hardship. After being hungry for a long time, they are both shocked and scared, which is harmful to their bodies and minds. Many people die and are prone to epidemics.
While Gu Xiang asked the soldiers of the Yongyi Army to deal with the bodies well, lime was sprinkled everywhere, and gave a large amount of points to invite a group of doctors to help with free medical treatment. In addition, these medicine soups were prepared, and all the people involved in the worker drank two bowls every day. Not to mention, the effect was not bad, and there has not been a large-scale epidemic in Shouling so far.
After getting in the car, Gu Xiang was still thinking about this matter. He said to Magistrate Wang and County Magistrate Zhou who came to see him off: "The weather is getting colder and colder, don't just be careful about preventing bandits. As the epidemic occurs, the harm is no less than that of bandits."
Magistrate Wang nodded repeatedly.
The convoy finally slowly left the county town. County Magistrate Zhou suddenly laughed, and met Magistrate Wang's idiot-looking gaze, and coughed lightly: "I just think, um, I just didn't expect that today would be."
Magistrate Wang smiled and said, "It's nothing wrong."
These days, the princess has become a reassurance.
Recently, County Magistrate Wang couldn't sleep every day. Although the bandits were in full swing, they were declining again and exhausted. It seemed that it was not so easy to make a comeback, but it had not been completely wiped out. Yongyi's army suffered a lot of losses, and the contact with the court was in the same situation some time ago. As a local parent, he was like floating in the sea, without falling.
Until he was called to the station by the princess and saw the pictures of three-month planning tables, five-month planning tables, one-year planning tables... and the planning book that could be piled up half a foot high on the table.
Those tables and those data fell into his eyes, and he suddenly realized that he had a headache when he remembered it, and the future that he could not see seemed to be clearly visible.
It is indeed not easy to deal with the crisis in the county. The difficulties listed in these planning tables seem to be crushing to the person, but his heart suddenly sinks into his stomach.
From this detailed data, he saw the future he could have as long as he was willing to work hard.
Is he afraid of suffering?
He suffered ten years of hard work. He also suffered in the first few years of being the magistrate of Shouling. He was deeply trapped in the suffering of despair. Now he was so excited that he went to school for the first time decades ago.
...
The autumn wind cools down one day.
Gu Xiang leaned on the cushion, closed his eyes, nodded one after another, one ear listened to Qiu Li and the others chatting, and the other ear listened to the old dog outside the car and said the various information they had found along the way.
Not only serious things, but also what new things are there, what fresh ingredients are there, which famous chef has produced, and what stories are there.
I took the car and walked all the way. Even if Gu Xiang was riding the princess's car, the whole car was simply a mobile house with all kinds of living facilities. It was already the most stable car at the moment, but it was still a bit bumpy.
I didn't dare to read the storybook. Even Qiu Li and the others wanted to do some needlework, she didn't allow it. It would be better for everyone to chat and listen to the storybook. When they were tired, they would cook a pot of tea and take it out to play chess.
Qiuli looked at her little lady's leisurely posture and wanted to speak but stopped.
Gu Xiang smiled and said, "If you are anxious and get angry, you can fly to Yanzhou and solve all the troubles in one breath. It doesn't matter if you make me angry and have sores on my mouth. Isn't that impossible?"
As he was talking, the carriage slowly stopped. The old dog outside whispered: "There is Jinxian in front of him, and there seems to be a rock falling, and the road is blocked."
Gu Xiang sighed.
In this era, it is not new to encounter such a thing.
It is already smooth for them to get to where they are today.
